Absolutely! Sunset Cinema is the perfect place to enjoy a family night out or entertain the kids for a few hours. Please be aware that we sometimes show films classified MA15+ (for the adults) which require children under 15 to be accompanied by a parent or guardian & R18+ films which require all patrons to be 18+.

To fully enjoy your Sunset Cinema experience, we suggest the following things:

– Layering up or bringing a blanket for those chillier summer nights.

– Insect repellent to keep those mozzies away!

– If you are in the Cricket Lawn area and haven’t hired any seating then you are more than welcome to bring you own rugs, pillows, lawn chairs ect. Just be aware that taller chairs will be restricted to the back of the grounds so that everyone can see the screen. If you are in the Grandstand area, you can bring pillows and blankets.

– If it looks like it’s going to rain then a poncho is recommended as we will only cancel the session if the weather becomes heavy and dangerous. We will also have a limited amount of blankets available on-site for purchase. No open umbrellas are allowed during the screening.

– Friends, Family or Dates; Sunset Cinema is best enjoyed with others!

Our team has a lot of experience when it comes to weather. The event managers onsite are constantly checking the weather radar and the conditions at the location, which may differ from those at your home.

If you contact us, we will not be able to give you any more information if we have not announced the cancellation. It is best to wait for us to contact you. If you do not hear from us, the screening is going ahead.

If we cancel your screening we will:

  • SMS the mobile number of the person who booked your ticket (hopefully they’ll share this with you if that wasn’t you).
  • Put a CANCELLED message across the screening page on the website.
